FYI, 朝鮮 originally meant "(brings) little tribute (to imperial China)"

"Morning calm" was adopted only after the Japanese occupation based on how we read these Chinese characters.

that meaning's Joseon(朝鮮) of hanja, and if translate properly 鮮 meaning's a "Fresh"
If translate Joseon, The Land of the Fresh morning is right

>The Land of the Morning Calm
>The native name of the country is chó-sen (Morning Calm or Fresh Morning), which french writers, spell Tsio-sen, Teo-cen, or Tchao-sian
Griffis, W. (1882). Corea, the Hermit Nation. London: W. H. Allen, p.3. >https://archive.org/details/coreahermitnatio00grif

It is an early translation used in the late 19th century when introducing Joseon in the West.
The present, which is the 21st century, remains as an alias for Joseon Dynasty, that's all, not our name's meaning

>Joseon (조선,朝鮮)
we do not know what it was originally means
our countries names are not based on the meaning of Chinese characters,
Found the closest hanja sound to korean and writing the hanja which is the most similar to the sound of Korean

It is the same in all of Han(韓), Goguryeo(高句麗), Baekje(百濟), and Silla(新羅), Joseon(朝鮮)
In short, it is a combination of hanja with pronunciation similar to Korean Language

in fact another name for Goguryeo was Goryeo(高麗), Guryeo(句麗)
Now Korean scholars think that the name of the original means of Goguryeo was Gori (고리)
It is a hanja notation based on ancient Korean pronunciation

in addition, aother names of Baekje were engjun(鷹準), Natu(羅鬪), Baekje(佰濟), Sipje(十濟)
aother name of Silla was Saro(斯盧), Sira(尸羅), Silro(新盧)

Our current name, 한(han) is Pure Korean, The meaning is big and wide
韓 is similar in pronunciation to 한, So When writing in hanja, our name's notation is 韓
Currently, 韓 is a chinese character that has pronunciation but has no meaning. In Chinese and Japanese Vietnam, it's just a word that means Korea
